The Opposition it seems has vowed to remain in opposition for decades, much like they were in power for years, said Prime Minister Narendra Modi in parliament on Monday taking a swipe at the Congress.
The Prime Minister also underscored that the Congress is caught in the cancel culture, drawing attention to the grand old party’s opposition to Make-In-India, Atmanirbhar Bharat, Vocal for Local while replying to the discussion on the Motion of Thanks on the President’s address.
Here are the top quotes from his speech:
* You (Opposition) have lost the appetite to fight pollls
* I see that many of you (Opposition) have even lost the courage to contest elections. Some seats were changed last time too, I have heard that many people are looking to change their seats this time as well.
* I have also heard that many people now want to go to Rajya Sabha instead of Lok Sabha. They are looking for their paths by assessing the situation
* Leaders have changed but their taperecorder is the same. There is no new content
“They (Opposition) failed to fulfill their responsibility as opposition…I have always said that the country needs a good opposition.”
* This is a poll year, but you failed to plan this as well
* Parivar running a party, which is a threat to democracy
* Congress caught in cancel culture. If we say make in India, Congress says cancel; when we say vocal for local, Congress says cancel; when we say Atmanirbha Bharat, Congress again says cancel. There is so much hate.
* Efforts to launch the same product again and again are shutting down the Congress’s dukaan
* The Congress is responsible for the Opposition’s sorry state today
* On the basis of the experience of 10 years of governance, looking at today’s strong economy and the rapid speed with which India is progressing today, I can confidently say that in our third term, India will be the third largest economic power. This is Modi’s guarantee
* BJP wil get 370 seats and the NDA 405
* Our third term will be one of great and big decisions
